The Portola has a long and unique history dating back to the late 1800s. Too often misidentified with neighboring districts; it has its own story to reveal. Originally settled by Jewish immigrants; the area evolved into a community populated by nurserymen and their families who grew much of the city�s flowers. �The Road;� as San Bruno Avenue was affectionately referred to by the locals; hosted businesses that included bakeries; grocery stores; pharmacies; and a theatre. In recent years; the Portola has undergone changes as community leaders have enacted programs to beautify the neighborhood and attract new businesses and families to this locale.
